Hi everyone
First many thanks for all your support following my post of 29th September, it really helped to know you guys where out there! I have been back to my Doc's and he's changed my anti-depressants and doubled my dose of steriods (I also have Lupus and he thinks the stress may have caused a flare with the Lupus, leading to my crazy mood swings, hope he's right!) Have been back to the head and neck clinic and as far as they can tell there has been no change from 6 weeks ago, so we are carrying on watching and waiting. Has anyone out there had laser treatment who has found the scar tissue becomes more red and sensitive with time? My first treatment was Oct 2001, last treatment May 2003 (this was on the back of my tongue and throat and this is now really sore) Any advice would be great. God Bless You All
Live well, laugh often, love much.
Helen
